Things To Do At Possum Kingdom Lake




There are plenty of things to do at PK Lake!  Boating and water recreation are the main event, but fishing is popular, as well as hiking, cycling and of course, golf.  After hours, the lake has some great places to eat or hang out with friends.  Don't know where to go or stay?  Call the Bunch at BigFish and we'll point you in the right direction!

The folks over at the Slalom Shop are in the process of creating a Boating Club here at Possum Kingdom Lake.  The Slalom Shop, headquartered in Lewisville, TX recently established a new dealership location at PK Lake.  We'll post more details as they become available in August.  If you're interested or would like to get involved, give us a call and we'll get you in touch with the club organizers. 

Planning your Calendar?  Here's an upcoming Schedule of Events:

  • February 7, 2008 - Trout Release (below the Dam) - Texas Parks & Wildlife

  • March 1, 2008 - Mardi Gras Parade on Bourbon Street & Evening Shrimp Peel sponsored by the PK Chamber of Commerce

The PK Mardi Gras store is now open at the PK Chamber during business hours Monday through Friday.  Stop by and get your throw beads, float decorations, hats, or whatever you need.  Do you get the feeling we take our annual Mardi Gras party seriously?!  Its lots of fun, and definitely a "not-to-be-missed" event at Possum Kingdom Lake.
